Ebuka Ofoma, a 38-year-old man arrested for defiling a 3-year-old girl in Anambra State, has claimed that he committed the act under the influence of alcohol. Ofoma, a native of Osumenyi in Nnewi South Local Government Area of the State, was apprehended by operatives of the Anambra State Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Welfare, following the tip-off about his alleged defilement of an under-aged girl at his hometown.

When interrogated, the suspect confessed to the crime but claimed he consumed eight bottles of beer on an occasion, which got him intoxicated, to have committed the act. According to the suspect, who is now cooling his feet in a police cell, the victim, whose name withheld, had approached him at a traditional wedding ceremony where he had already drank eight bottles of beer while enjoying himself, and dragged him out to watch masquerade. Ofoma claimed that after he reluctantly followed her to the scene, the girl, in fear of the masquerade, cuddled him beside a car, while he began to finger her.

He admitted that he inserted two fingers into the victim’s genitalia while claiming that he was not enjoying or feeling anything when he was defiling her. He further hinted that people were around the scene when he was doing that, who went and called the mother of the child when they noticed what was going on; only for him to be arrested later on in his house.
